I hope my child’llNever love a man.I say I hope my child’llNever love a man.Love can hurt youMo’n anything else can.I’m going down to the riverAn’ I ain’t goin’ there to swim;Down to the river,Ain’t goin’ there to swim.My true love’s left meAnd I’m going’ there to think about him.Love is like whiskey,Love is like red, red wine.Love is like whiskey,Like sweet red wine.If you want to be happyYou got to love all the time.I’m goin’ up in a towerTall as a tree is tall,Up in a towerTall as a tree is tall.Gonna think about my man-And let my fool-self fall.
